Who is Kate?

Meet Kate: the girl who inspires us.

It all started in 2006, when Kelly de Vries volunteered in Ghana and met her then four-year-old host-sister, Kate. With her radiant eyes and zest for life, she showed Kelly a different side of Africa to the one she had known before. This girl represents the future children deserve. To improve the prospects of Kate and other Ghanaian children, Kelly started the Meet Kate Foundation, named after the girl who inspired her to do so.

Our projects

Your donation is in good hands with Meet Kate. Every penny is put to good use!

Meet Kate’s projects are located in the central region of Ghana, in the medium-sized town of Agona Swedru and the little neighbouring village Ekwamkrom. All projects are the result of local initiatives and dreams and are run byGhanaian employees. Every project aims to be financially independent within five years of their creation. The educational projects therefore contain sustainableelements within them to generatemoney locally. We also run projects focussing solely on self-reliance, like the poultry farm and the cacao plantation.
